"Old Woman Dozing" is a genre painting by Dutch artist Nicolaes Maes, a prominent pupil of Rembrandt. Created around 1656, this work is an exquisite example of Maes's domestic scenes, showcasing his skill in capturing the quiet moments of everyday life. The painting depicts an elderly woman, possibly a family member or a servant, who has fallen asleep while reading the Bible, a common theme that reflects the importance of religion in 17th-century Dutch society.

The composition is intimate and warm, with the soft light highlighting the textures of the woman's clothing and the surrounding domestic interior. Maes's attention to detail is evident in the realistic portrayal of the woman's peaceful face and the intricate folds of her garments. The painting's chiaroscuro, the contrast between light and dark, reveals the influence of his teacher, Rembrandt, and contributes to the overall sense of tranquility and depth.

"Old Woman Dozing" is not only a testament to Maes's technical prowess but also an insight into the cultural and social norms of the Dutch Golden Age. The work is often praised for its narrative quality and the artist's ability to evoke empathy and reflection in the viewer. Today, the painting is held in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
